Bump update or bumpdate for short!


About my bump in the road, on Friday after work I got a message saying they had gotten me my Upper GI scheduled for THIS MONDAY at 7:30am.  This makes me a little nervous because I have to get a sub for me at work.  I also have to get my plans to work before I get to the appointment.  

The person who normally schedules subs (awesome lady) is away.  I called and left a message for the person who is filling in for her (another awesome lady).  I haven't heard back.  I was really looking forward to getting this done so I can move forward.  I'll try to call again on Sunday.  

Can my bump have bumps?  haha  I think mine does!

This weekend's research: Vitamins

This weekend Jeff and I have been researching different types of vitamins that I can take Post-Op.  It's a little overwhelming.  There are lots of different options, some formulated for bariatric patients, and some not. 

I really think I need to talk to my nutritionist about this again.  She said I could take a regular multi-vitamin, but I'm not so sure.  There's a lot of information out there and it's honestly all overwhelming.  

An odd thing is that on bariatric message boards, they refer to a nutritionist as a "nut."  That's really an odd way to refer to him or her.  

I am currently looking at trying this vitamin to see how I like it.
